Make Me Smile || Kurt Cobain

Chapter 15 - Bad Omen

Kurt

I couldn't eat as usual and I could tell Ashlyn kept glancing at me no matter how discrete she tried to be.

Right from last night, I had an extremely uneasy feeling about everything. Not just Axl being her brother but... something just felt off. Almost like all the events of last night were bad omens. But I couldn't figure out what it was exactly.

Either way something was seriously off.

"So..." Krist started, breaking the silence. "...I guess we can start this story from the beginning?"

"Definitely. So, Axl and I lived in Indiana with our parents, well our mom, my dad and his step dad from what we just discovered" Ashlyn said.

"Oh, you guys are half siblings? That explains the clear differences between you and Axl" I shot.

"Hey, watch it Kurt" Axl warned.

"Yeah, take it easy Kurt" Ashlyn said though amused, seemed offended.

"Sorry Ash, proceed" I said. I couldn't turn off my smart mouth whenever I had the chance to take a shot at Axl. My weakness.

"Thank you. So, we've always been close to each other and our parents were all great and all but..."

"That's where you're wrong sis. Our parents were fucking assholes. Her Dad beat me up all the time for the silliest reasons and Mom just watched him and did absolutely nothing. Bitch" Axl said. Krist, Dave and I gasped. Even I was shocked.

"Did he beat you up to Ash?" Dave, almost scared to ask coughed up. Ashlyn stayed silent and from what I saw, Izzy put a comforting hand on hers.

Okay, that bothered me but I could let it slide at that moment.

How could a man beat up his own children? Especially someone like Ashlyn who didn't have a bad bone in her body?

"Whoa!" Ashlyn's voice rang snapping me outta my thoughts. "Oh my God, Kurt!" She exclaimed.

"Take it easy man" Krist said.

"My glass!" Izzy exclaimed as Ashlyn tossed his hand off hers and came over to examine mine. I had a few glass shards in my palm and the glass cup that was formerly in my hand was shattered.

Yeah, my anger is not a pleasant thing.

"Izzy do you have a first aid kit somewhere?" She asked. Izzy nodded and motioned over to a cupboard which was a bit high for Ashlyn. "I'll get it for you beautiful, don't worry about it too much"

Axl glared at Izzy at the mention of that 'nickname' as did I as Izzy handed the first aid kit over to Ashlyn as she got to work.

"Okay, first off come with me Kurt" She said. I complied as she led me over to the sink and washed my hand gently. Then she put on some gloves and got out some tweezers and pulled the glass shards away from my hand carefully. "This is the painful part, are you ready?"

"Yeah"

She then clean the wounds with an antiseptic liquid, rubbed an antibiotic cream on it before wrapping it up with a bandage.

"There. You should be all better in two to three days." She said kissing my hand.

"Wow, you've got a magic hand" I said. She laughed and kissed my cheek. That sudden movement stunned me but luckily no one was watching. We both got back to our seats. From what I saw, Izzy had already picked up the other pieces of glass and thrown them away.

"What a nurse, next time I'm injured you could tend to me as well" Izzy said wiggling his eyebrows which made her giggle.

Ugh, what was funny?
